Don't Bury Me Yet: Aging in America: The Last Days of Our Elderly Loved Ones
Description:
In previous generations, families lived together or close by, and the love and consideration for the elderly was taken for granted. Now, in this accelerating pace of rapidly evolving technology, Baby Boomers and Gen X'ers find little time sandwiched between the empty nest syndrome and the care of their elderly parents. Often the nursing home is the only option. The care at nursing homes, as altruistic and professional as it might be, does not eliminate the feeling of abandonment so many elderly have. Through their own voices in this book, the elderly, caregivers and family members show us the reality of the challenges in the care of the aged in modern America. In doing so, they encourage us to offer more compassion so that our loved ones could live their last days with dignity and depart from this world safely and peacefully.
